I liked it. Interesting orientation and perspective. I also thought that the color in the street lamp provided a unique accent. Was it green in the original or was it modified?

its green originally, I just desaturated the rest of the photo.

Very nice shot.

Looks really urban and a neat selective color!

Nice shot. Congratulations on your first photo post! Looking forward to many more.

wow this must be the first time I have actually like selective colouring... awesome shot

Interesting photo. I have to wonder "Why Green?"

Green is the color of life. Green is flora. Green means "GO!"

This is a dark scene of run down buildings and broken glass. Nothing here is alive. No flora. Nothing about the scene says "GO!" It's seems to be stopped.

If the selective green were of a plant in a run down alley, then yes, go with green.

In Photoshop I opened the photo and did a -50 on the Hue. At that point the color is beyond amber and headed into red. There's a blotch on the light that really picks up the effect and gives is a more ominous look. I'd post it, but you have "Image Editing" turned off in your user profile for POTN.

Very nice use of selective colour.

I have done that already, personally I think the Green works better. It provokes imagination at least, and with Red the message is very clear.

great picture. i prefer the green too. despite the buildings being run down... the green adds spark to the image, as if there is a glimmer of life. as if there is hope yet for this block of buildings.

The slective coloring works really well here the green is the better of the two!

Green for me too! - I like this.
Can you remember what film you used? - I have an EOS30 (Elan 7 in the US I believe) and have started to use it recently for B&W.

I like the red over the green. Green as hope doesn't work for me on this one because it is coming from a dirty light. The edit I did is more amber with red blotches. You'd have to see it to understand what I mean.

Let's see.
